Murky dark chestnut brown. Minty, orangey nose w/ light molasses. Quite sweet, minty, herbal, then suddenly does a U-turn into an intense, medicinal, quinine, bark-like bitterness. Distinctive, if nothing else.

Cloudy tan-copper; rousing hop aroma - cedar, grapefruit, orange. Creamy start, wonderfully smooth hoppiness flows over the palate. High woody factor, but no earth, pointing to all US hops and minimal quantities of crystal malts. Biscuits, wood, grapefruit collide. Luscious, and finishing with a lot of bitterness.

Dark copper-amber, hazy. Rich hop aroma - mint, spruce, orange. Almost smells like root beer. Loaded hop palate with fat resiny hops overlaying a still-balanced chewy maltiness - caramelized sugar, pine, toffee, light citrus. Finishes long, dry and mouth-coating.

It''s small beer, all right. Very pale. Faint biscuity aroma, light body. Vaguely hop accented. Seems wheaty, though apparently that''s not the case.

Light tan; faint aroma; woody cascades mixes with a nice pale malt character. Hints of toasty amber malts work well. Light but well-balanced, refreshing.

Light citrus hop nose. Lots of hops in the flavor, but somehow they don't taste quite right,as if they were immature or the wrong type
